Virtual Event Sheds Light on AI’s Transformative Role in Healthcare

May 21, 2025

Artificial intelligence is quickly reshaping industries, and healthcare is no exception. From enhancing diagnostics to easing physician burnout, AI offers promising benefits while inviting careful oversight to avoid pitfalls like bias and misinformation.

Newsweek’s Healthcare Editor, Alexis Kayser, is set to host a live webinar titled “Health Care’s AI Playbook: Building Safe, Smart and Scalable Systems” on May 20. This virtual event will bring together top experts to explore practical ways to implement AI safely and effectively in patient care.

Kayser has noted that while AI can deliver significant improvements, it also requires a steady hand and clear policies to ensure that its benefits are realised safely. This balanced approach is crucial, especially in a field where outcomes can directly affect lives.

The discussion features insightful voices such as Dr Andreea Bodnari, a scientist and entrepreneur behind successful AI solutions at leading organisations, and Dr Danny Tobey, who specialises in the legal and ethical dimensions of AI. Their combined expertise is set to offer valuable guidance on responsible AI use.

Additionally, Dr Brian Anderson, co-founder of the Coalition for Health AI, will share tips on building robust guidelines for safe AI deployment, while Dr Michael Pencina from Duke Health will discuss how data science can be integrated smoothly into healthcare practices.

The dialogue will also address cybersecurity, highlighting AI’s role both as a powerful tool and a potential vulnerability if misused. If you’ve ever wondered how technology can streamline patient care while safeguarding critical systems, this session should definitely catch your interest.

Running from 2:15 to 3:15 pm EST, this webinar promises an engaging look at the future of healthcare and the balanced role of AI. Interested readers can register for the live event via Newsweek’s platform.
